Abstract: Procedimiento para efectuar el seguimiento del tiempo en un receptor inalámbrico, que comprende las etapas siguientes: demodular (208, 270) una primera réplica de una señal para generar un primer grupo de valores de energía correspondiente a un grupo de valores de datos posibles de dicha señal; demodular (200, 272) una segunda réplica de dicha señal para generar un segundo grupo de valores de energía correspondiente a dicho grupo de valores de datos posibles; combinar (210, 276) dicho primer y dicho segundo grupo de valores de energía para determinar un grupo combinado de valores de energía; determinar (212, 278) una primera estimación de un valor de datos con la máxima probabilidad de haber sido transmitido, basándose en dicho grupo combinado de valores de energía; revelar (214, 280) un grupo adelantado de muestras desensanchadas de dicha primera réplica, mediante un símbolo correspondiente a dicha primera estimación, para generar un primer valor de energía adelantado; revelar (214, 280) un grupo atrasado de muestras desensanchadas de dicha primera réplica, mediante dicho símbolo correspondiente a dicha primera estimación, para generar un primer valor de energía atrasado; y determinar (216, 282) la diferencia horaria de dicha primera réplica, basándose en dicho primer valor de energía adelantado y dicho primer valor de energía atrasado.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for compressing fixed point signals without introducing a bias. Signals are compressed according to a dithered rounding approach wherein signal values are rounded up and rounded down with approximately equal probability, canceling the bias that would otherwise result from the rounding operation. Numerical properties of the input signal are exploited in order to determine whether the signal value should be rounded up or down. Signal compression may, therefore, be introduced at multiple points within a system without accumulating a signal bias and degrading downstream performance. Further, one bit signal compression may be achieved in a particularly efficient fashion with a minimal amount of hardware.

Abstract: A Wireless Code Division Multiple Access method and apparatus for determining the transmitted rate of a voice/data signal from a mobile station to a Base Station. Variable rate vocoders transmit voice at one of several predetermined frame rates. The receiver determines the transmitted rate based on one of several frame parameters. One of the parameters is received frame energy. The received frame energy is measured over the length of the relevant portion of the frame. Energy is measured over the half of the frame that can only contain energy if a full rate frame is sent. If the energy measured exceeds a threshold, then full rate is indicated. Else, energy is measured over the fourth of a frame that can only contain energy if a half rate frame is sent. If the energy exceeds a threshold, then half rate is indicated. The procedure is repeated for quarter and eighth rates.

Abstract: The frame of data is partitioned into a plurality of portions of data symbols. A plurality of channel elements is assigned to demodulate data symbols of correspondingly the plurality of portions of data symbols. The number of the plurality of portions of data symbols is higher in a case at high data rate than a case at low data rate.

Abstract: A wireless receiver receiving multipath Wash-code symbols determines which of fingers 402, 410 have locked on a signal. Measurements of the correlation energies between the received signal and all possible symbols are stored in energy storage units 404, 412. The actual signals are combined in combiner 408. A maximum determiner 416 determines the most likely combined symbol, and an index for this symbol is fed back to the energy storage units. Lock detectors 406, 414 use the measurement for this fed-back symbol to determine whether the finger has locked onto a path. This determination is used to decide whether the next signal detected by that finger should be applied to the combiner.

Abstract: In order to time track an incoming signal, a receiver demodulates a first instance of a signal to produce a first set of energy values corresponding to a set of possible data values of the signal. The receiver also demodulates a second instance of the signal to produce a second set of energy values corresponding to the set of possible data values. The receiver combines the first and the second sets of energy values to determine a combined set of energy values. The receiver determines a first estimate of a most likely transmitted data value based upon the combined set of energy values. The receiver decovers an early set of despread samples of the first instance using a symbol corresponding to the first estimate to produce a first early energy value. The receiver decovers a late set of despread samples of the first instance using the symbol corresponding to the first estimate to produce a first late energy value. Finally, the receiver determines a time offset of the first instance based upon the first early and the first late energy values.

Abstract: In a remote unit receiver capable of demodulating a plurality of signal instances corresponding to a singe remote unit transmitted signal, a first instance of a signal is demodulated to produce a first set of energy values corresponding to a set of possible data values of the signal. A second instance of the signal is demodulated to produce a second set of energy values corresponding to the set of possible data values. The first and the second sets of energy values are then combined to determine a combined set of energy values. A first estimate of a most likely transmitted data value is determined based upon the combined set of energy values An energy level of the first instance is determined based upon the energy value within the first set of energy values corresponding to the first estimate of the most likely transmitted data value.
